   Sorry, we not have free samples, and the minimum order quantity at 10 PCS. The 1 are trouble. give you inconvenience, please understanding!

You miss understand me,

Code:
I want to get one phr for test, [b]of course paying for that[/b]

But still, 50$ for shipping? Nice prices of course, you would have many customers but just that shipping cost :/


I could get 10 phrs, but still I need to pay twice that price for shipping.

Another reason for us to get what we can from you. If they have what I want in Alabama thats where I'd go. Or some of the other usual sellers in here.
I'm still hopeful that the diode being tested will be a bright one. I wont be holding my breath based on some of the date codes.

Holy Christ! Are you sure that it is that much? I never talked to Jack about shipping.

Same here. It would be great to have a new diode to be able to purchase.

Sorry I'm going to be the devils advocate here and call bull$hit.  The sled is not from a 8x and your wasting your time dealing with a chinese retailer that won't provide 1 damn sample to then sell 50-150 or more if they prove good.  They have nothing to lose if they have what they claim and everything to gain.

I just say go away and waste our time no more. These people think we are stupid and will bite on anything that "looks" to be good and in all actuality are lying to us. Oh yeah we dont' learn. We are the dregs of society and the world and totally incapable of making intelligent decisions. We have been burned down this road and will deal with no-one until they PROVE themselves TO US FIRST.

Trust me, my hopes aren’t up… I’m just clinging to a dying 1/1000th of a chance that those are 8x sleds, or at least something decent.

would you like to see the invoice?

I believe you 100%, but if want wanna’ show me, be my guest. I think it would be slightly interesting to see.

Haha don’t apologize, you’re the first one to bluntly state the most probable reality in this situation. And he did provide 1 sample to Amkdeath but that is it. But with only one test we don’t have enough data to confirm anything. It could be a freak or just a dud, and nobody will know it.

But hold up, are you telling me to go away or Jack to go away? `Cause if you’re saying that to me, we have problems :mad:. That’s a pretty uncalled-for, disrespectful way to ask one to stop updating this thread. But if not directed to me, then we’re good :).

P.S. What I highlighted is so true.

I'm sure Ken's referring to the seller... who already has a dubious reputation here on LPF..

I know enough about this stuff to know that you can't trust any single point of data - for all we know, the one sent for a sample is a hand-picked or "real" 8X sled, taken from a known 8X drive. That way, a reputable member confirms some extremely good results, then we all launch ourseles at getting the verified "8X sleds" for a brilliant price, and there turn out to be hundreds of orders. Then, we find out that he has some trash sleds and they're worth next to nothing. PayPal won't even do a charge-back if the money isn't in your seller's account, and the guy organising the GB is up against a wall, with PayPal debt collectors demanding the money from his account that he doesn't even have.

You may think this unlikely, but didn't one of Amk's GBs fail because the seller overrated some sleds as 6X when they were really the 4X sled? And, since the seller contacted him, I am guessing that this is the same supplier as the one for his previous GB. I'd procede with caution...

Oh, i know who are you, your are Andrew Fitch. Please do not say lies. the invoice send to your in April 17, 2009. your said need 100 PHR-803T and 100 LPC815, weight at 10kg, we said shipping cost is $210.

Why your said 50 PHR-803T and 50 LPC815 the shipping cost at $215??? WHY???? :( absolutely no such thing.

But 100 PHR and 100 LPC, we said shipping cost are $210, this is true.

Haha, I’ll take it from you; you probably know him more than I do, “eh” (haha sorry I couldn’t resist, but don’t get me wrong… Canada’s awesome :)). And I like your expression. No offense was meant to Ken in that last post, so Ken, if you’re reading this, please don’t take any. Sorry if I came off wrong!!!

Yuh’s done went and gone op’nd my eyes’s tuh tha’ light… God bless yo’ lil’ soul.

No but really, everything that you said is very true. I was actually thinking the same thought, that if good results come out, the diode in the sled might have just been swapped for a powerful 8x one. Its worth the extra time, hard effort, and money to do that if you have a possible order of sleds in the hundreds, leading you to thousands of bucks. And PayPal never has seemed to be very accepting about returns.

And I didn’t know about Amkdeath’s previous scammed group buy! We better watch ourselves here.

I don’t quite know what to make of this…

Why is the shipping so much

Wondering the same thing: I’m have a couple of different ideas about that in my head:

- It doesn’t really cost that much, Jack is trying to make a few extra bucks.
- It does cost that much because 10kg (if that’s the actual weight) must be hard to reliably ship from China.

Who knows.

Jack
